The next step for Precision Agriculture : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2009)
Growers in the Homebush Innovative Growers Group are well aware of the within-paddock variability that occurs within paddocks. The adoption of electrical conductivity (EC) soil mapping technology verified the patterns of ...
Accelerating precision agriculture to decision agriculture : a review of on-farm telecommunications challenges and opportunities in supporting a digital agriculture future for Australia
(University of New England, 2017)
This project is supported by funding from the Australian Government Department of Agriculture and Water Resources as part of its Rural R&D for Profit programme. The P2D project involves all Rural Research and Development ...
Utilising available technology to better manage yield variability within blocks : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2008)
The specific aim of this project was to gain information on the different layers of information collected at a block level to allow site specific crop management. The Blackburn Brothers have also investigated the farm ...
Precision farming with controlled traffic and GPS guidance system : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2007)
After working with the Central Region new farming system grower group we decided to take the system to the next level and implement GPS guidance and precision. Our aim was to overcome the problems associated with converting ...
Accelerating precision agriculture to decision agriculture: the needs and drivers for the present and future of digital agriculture in Australia
(Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research OrganisationCotton Research and Development Corporation, 2017)
The aim of the project was to benchmark Australian producers’ needs, perceived risks and benefits, and expectations associated with digital agriculture and big data context. Such understanding will inform strategies aimed ...
Beach sand to black clay; Adapting technology and best practice for Homebush farming conditions : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2008)
This project aimed to adapt latest technology & best practice to suit the soil types found in the Homebush/Sunnyside district, and evaluate the cost and benefit of adopting these technologies and practices. To conduct the ...
Automating harvester and haulout forward progression during harvest utilizing DGPS : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2010)
Issue: The issue that this project sought to address was to increase the performance of the harvester and haul-out during forward progression. This issue has ramifications through the entire sugar value chain as losses at ...
Identifying management zones within cane paddocks: an essential foundation for precision sugarcane agriculture : SRDC Final report BPS001
(2011)
Variability in plant growth across spatial zones within sugarcane crops arises from the complex interactions of soil nutritional status, soil physical properties (especially soil texture), surface and subsurface drainage, ...
Remote sensing-based precision agriculture tools for the sugar industry : SRDC Final report DPI021
(2013)
This project aimed to develop remote sensing applications that were both relevant and of commercial benefit to the Australian sugar industry and therefore adoptable. Such applications included the in season mapping of crop ...
Workshop on new technologies in sugarcane crop forecasting : SRDC Final report WS004
(2001)
Work over the last 3 years in the Herbert Resource Information Centre has demonstrated that it is possible to use remotely sensed satellite imagery to produce a reasonably accurate crop forecast provided there is limited ...
